Will Bitcoin Price Hold $29600 Support Amid Current Market Sell-off?

While the bullish hype built up from the application of various US-based companies for spot Bitcoin ETF faded, the crypto market witnessed a downturn this week. As a result, the largest cryptocurrency Bitcoin turned down from the multiple-month resistance zone of $31400-31300. The bearish reversal has plunged the coin price to 4.5% to retest the demand zone at $29640. Will the BTC price continue its downward projection from here?

Bitcoin Price Daily Chart

  • The range formation projects a no-trading zone between $31300 and $29640 horizontal level.

Over the past two weeks, the Bitcoin price continues to wobble in a tight range stretching from $31300 to $29640. On July 7th, the coin price bounced from the range’s support level indicating the buyers continue to defend higher prices and thus it could prolong the sideways action.

If the bullish momentum persists, the coin holders may witness a 2.7% rise to rechallenge overhead resistance. Therefore, the Bitcoin price needs a suitable breakout from this range to determine the potential trend in the near future.

As the current consolidation is considered a temporary break from a high-momentum rally, the buyers will more likely continue the upward trend once the bullish momentum recuperates. A breakout above $31300 could extend the bull run to $33000, followed by $34850 and $37470.

What if Bitcoin Price Breaks $29640 Support?

The Bitcoin price may enter a longer correction mode if the sellers break below the $29640 support. This breakdown could tumble the prices by 5% and reach the combined support of $28100 and 50% Fibonacci retracement support.  The coin holders can maintain their bullish sentiment until the aforementioned horizontal support and a long-coming trendline are intact.

  • Average Directional Index: A slight downtick in the daily ADX slope reflects the buyers still holding sufficient strength.
  • Exponential Moving Average: The Bitcoin price rebounded from the 20-day EMA indicating the market sentiment is still aggressively bullish.
